There are 11.5m documents and 2.6 terabytes of information drawn from Mossack Fonseca’s internal database. Is there a torrent for this or an online catalog?

Yeah, I've stumbled upon this Monopoly image about 2 years ago, when I was developing a small JS-based website. It dynamically embedded random pics from image hosting sites like Imgur, and this Monopoly guy was everywhere. I guessed th

I wish there were more articles about determining the frequency at which one page should be crawled. Some pages never change, some change multiple times per minute, and we do not want to crawl them all equally often.

.edu domains are still popular targets in Western Europe, and access to webservers in .gov and .edu TLDs is the most priced there. The cause for this is the belief that Google gives more weight to content and backlinks from these TLDs.

It feels and looks wrong: their website is a mess and the devices look no better. Their domain has whois privacy enabled, and it was just registered this year. News of this product are spreading quickly, but I can not find anything else abo

Thanks, just figured out how huge this event actually is. Any chance that VPC will support broadcast? The FAQ page is quite dry on details.

A re:Invent banner was all over AWS sites for half a year now, I can't believe that this is it. I was expecting Jeff standing up in a suit and talking to a live audience. Instead, there is what appears to be a pre-recorded video stream

Thanks, but I've heard stories about the german Hetzner hosting lots of suspicious stuff and not caring. Especially in minds of russians and other eastern-europeans, Germany has been considered a safe harbor for grey and outright illeg

I do crawling from EC2, and yes, I would not like a 1Gbps traffic spike myself. Do you deal with generic webpage crawlers that way, or targeted API abuse? Because the first ones can be smoothly shaved away with the help of Cloudflare, for i

This is great news. Does anybody know if there are significant differences between Ireland and Germany, concerning things like privacy and copyright protection? Perhaps there are same laws in EU, which are just enforced less in one country?

Well, this is cool, but Safari allows for loading basically any file located on the filesystem. For instance, trying file:///etc/passwd results in file found but can not be opened by Safari. That could be an attack vecto

Ugh, I'm confused by those area conversions. Edited to 1.33 km^2. I believe it sounds right and puts scale into perspective.

Can capacitive touchscreens be perhaps useful, with their much larger surface areas? For perspective, in mid-2013, the combined screen area of just all the iPhones ever manufactured, was around 1.33 square km ( 214.39 square feet ). Source:

This made me wonder: has there ever been a death threat, that has actually been carried out later by the same person or group? Why would anyone announce a premeditated murder before it really happens?

I guess there are already worms around, exploiting this bug. Thus, has somebody thought of exploiting and patching the attackers in response?

Sure! I am probably biased, but I have been following Artemy and his studio from the early 2000s. He publishes semi-random notes on design, some of them influenced by realities of a post-Soviet state. Here is a link to the book: http:/

A fine example of design for the sake of design. Is that an amateur proposal, or was this accepted by USPS, polished further and paid for? Based on the amount of text fillings, looks like the latter is true. In any way, what I see is highly
